Celebrate in Historic Style

Looking for a quiet and effortless wedding venue with timeless romance? Our 1798 Spanish era buildings and gardens are the perfect fit. Relax with your family and friends on the lawn of our courtyard as you celebrate your special day. Enjoy memorable photographs along the brick streetscape of Aviles Street, which has the distinction of being oldest street in America. Our historic home and gardens will provide picture perfect memories for your happily-ever-after!

A History of Love and Family

Since our first wedding in 1834, when Anna Elizabeth Whitehurst married James Hanson in our home, we have been hosting unique and elegant weddings in the heart of Old St. Augustine. Bring the vision of your dream wedding to life in our private courtyard in a tropical oasis amongst banana plants, a rainbow of hibiscus, and many varieties of citrus. Your guests will enjoy the look and feel of old Spain without the trip abroad.

Fantastic historic, garden venue

We loved the Fatio house for our reception. Our wedding was smaller than originally planned and the space felt perfectly intimate. The gardens were beautiful and lush, even in November. I highly recommend string lights over the dance floor area, it gives the area such a romantic atmosphere.
